Overflowing Hidden Feelings: This CEO Is Hard to Please!
Chapter 1201 - 1201 Clara Browns Utter Shamelessness 4

Chapter 1201: Clara Brown’s Utter Shamelessness 4 Chapter 1201: Clara Brown’s Utter Shamelessness 4 Clara Brown could feel the angry aura emanating from Mia Garcia.

“Mia, don’t blame me for being harsh,” Clara said with some sadness, “I’m not doing this for myself. Without me looking out for my interests, no one else will. I’m your mother, and it’s only because I have no other choice that I’m thinking of securing my livelihood through you, and that’s under the condition that you’re unwilling to help.”

“Not help you?” Mia retorted coldly, “If I weren’t helping you, I’d have let you starve to death. I wouldn’t even have mentioned giving you living expenses. Your so-called lack of help is just because you think I haven’t helped you live an upper-class life.”

Mia had now completely seen through Clara, “When did you take those videos? How can you expect me to believe you actually have them on hand?”

“I have just two videos, they’re not very long— one is two minutes, the other is five. If you don’t believe me, I can send them to your phone in a bit,” Clara responded.

Mia’s hand clenched the phone tightly, and she gritted her teeth, “Tell me, how much money do you actually want?”

Hearing her ask this, Clara knew that their mother-daughter relationship had reached its end.

But now, she had no other choice but to take this step.

“Fifty million,” Clara demanded a king’s ransom.

“Just sell those videos to the entertainment reporters,” Mia snapped back, “Once I have the baby and leave the Collins Family, I can stir things up in the AV industry myself.”

“The Collins Family is so wealthy, and you’re carrying their only heir; this amount of money will be a drop in the bucket for your future,” Clara shamelessly pressed on, “If you can’t come up with the sum right now, you can start with ten million and pay off the rest over five years.”

“Why don’t you just die, it would settle everything,” Mia was infuriated to the point of metaphorical blood vomit.

Let alone having ten million in cash now, even if she had it, she would not give it to Clara.

“Mia, so what do you suggest? Think you can fob me off with a million? You should know that even a one-bedroom apartment can’t be bought in Metropolis for that price!” Clara stated bluntly.

Suppressing her rage, Mia said, “The house you’re currently living in, I will pay off the loan for one of the apartments in installments, as for the rest, you’ll have to figure it out for yourself. Take it if you wish, or do whatever you please if you don’t want it.”

“Go ahead and try, take those videos to Eric Collins, if you can get ten million from him, I’ll consider you ruthless. If you can even get a million from the entertainment reporters, you’re still ruthless,” Mia finished speaking and immediately hung up the phone.

Clara was naturally displeased with Mia talking in such absolute terms and then hanging up on her.

At the same time, she was also considering which option would be more beneficial for her.

The house she was currently living in, given its location in the neighborhood, was worth at least ten million. Redeeming one of the apartments and selling some jewelry she owned might sustain her living for a while, but…

If things turned out as Mia had said, and she could not get ten million from Eric Collins, wouldn’t she lose both her bargaining chip and the Force? She had no skills or capabilities. If that man decided to be ruthless and…kidnap her…

Clara shuddered at the thought and dared not continue pondering the possibilities.

As for Mia, Clara knew she couldn’t push her daughter too hard all at once. Some things needed strategic planning over time.

Having thought through all this, Clara’s heart suddenly lightened. No matter how strained their relationship was, she was still Mia Garcia’s mother, and she knew so much about her daughter’s secrets.
